Hello Rafters, Kayakers, and Group and Event Organizers,
We're
running the "Upper Stretch" of the White Salmon, it's
almost Tieton River season, and we have a great kids kayaking program
... so get out on the river and take advantage of this season's
great water levels!
 In
this month's newsletter:
WET
PLANET RAFTING
We
are now running the Upper Stretch of the White Salmon River!
As the water levels drop each summer, we begin launching all of
our White
Salmon River trips at our private launch site, 2.1 miles upstream
of the standard commercial launch site. Many folks wait to make
reservations each season until we begin running this upper stretch
of river. Well, the water levels are here, and we will be
running the “upper stretch” for the remainder of the
White Salmon season. These extra two miles, not run by
companies using the traditional launch site, add several class IV
rapids, incredible scenery, and an optional cliff-jump back into
the river after walking around BZ Falls. With our private put-in
and take-out, Wet Planet exclusively offers the longest section
of class III-IV whitewater run by any company on the water. This
trip IS different … see
for yourself here.
Repeat
Floaters Special – an opportunity to see “the upper”

BBQ Special for Groups: any group of 15 or more rafters during mid-week

The
Tieton River
return to top
September is just around the corner, and this means that it is almost
Tieton Season. The Tieton
River offers up an incredible season’s finale of big waves
and non-stop roller coaster style wave trains. Every September,
water is released from Rim Rock lake, and the water roaring down
through the Tieton River is perfect for fun whitewater rafting.
So, come check out the Tieton this September. Join us at our private
Wet Planet base camp site in the beautiful Tieton River canyon.
All Tieton River trips include an after-trip BBQ, and all Wet Planet
guests are welcome to camp with us at our base camp.
Tieton
River Early Bird Special:
Make reservations for a group of 6 or more on the Tieton River before
August 15th: and the 6th person rafts half price!
